BAD BOY El Hadji Diouf was sent off for goading Brighton fans after scoring for Leeds.

His dismissal ensured Leeds ended with just nine men after Rudy Austin had seen red just 12 minutes in.

The ex-Bolton striker charged towards visiting supporters after scoring a 75th-minute penalty at the opposite end of the ground.

And Brighton took advantage with Leonardo Ulloa netting an 87th-minute header to seal his side’s play-off place.

The Seagulls had taken a 10th- minute lead through Will Buckley before Inigo Calderon was dismissed for fouling Diouf – and the Senegalese fired in the spot kick. His dismissal ensured Leeds ended with just nine men after Rudy Austin had seen red just 12 minutes in.
